When Is The Right Time To Consider Divorce?

For couples who may be struggling, sometimes divorce becomes a reality.

But Dr. Phil cautions that divorce shouldn’t be an option if couples “haven’t done the work” to fix their relationship.

“The time to get a divorce is when you can look at each other, and yourself in the mirror, and say, ‘OK, there is no stone left unturned. I can honestly look myself in the mirror and say I have done everything I know how to do. I have no unfinished emotional business. I’m not angry. I’m not bitter. I’m not hurt. I am at peace with the decision to end this relationship,’” Dr. Phil explains.
